People exaggerate the things. No OBC of 40% can get into Medical college. The cut off for the OBC and SC is slowly catching up with cut off marks for General. I had one experience. My friend who hates reservation applied for the seat in Law College. When we went to the college to the see merit list, he was astonished. He uttered, Had I been an SC also I would not have made into the list. Because he had less marks than the cut-off marks of the SC quota. The things have changed. It is time to accept the reservation in the larger interests of the country. The issue that should be raised is that the job losses to be stopped. There are lakhs of jobs are lying vacant. We must raise together and voice for the real social justice. Jai Hind.

You can bring horse to the water but you can not make him drink water. Anti reservationists do not want to lisen any thing which is logical and also in the larger interest of the nation.

No..What you are saying is not true. It is reverse that is happening now. Take the case Tamil Nadu that is notable for the reservation. The quality is not compromised. Infact more professionals have come out from Tamil Nadu than before. The complaint that the OBC who has 40% can become Doctor while the General who has 90 cannot become does not hold now. Even the cut-off marks given to the OBC are very closer to the General. These people had a wish to study because they had reservation.

The only interest that the reservation can breed is ineptness. The story that you are trying to make has no foundation. You people fear the competition. For this reason you take the pride of raccoons. Reservation is a social injustice to tallents. It is recognition of racial and social bias meted to a certain group of individuals. The very idea of Ambedkars reservation has failed to give prosperity to the SC/ST mass. This reservation has made no progress in the lives of SC/ST in the past 50 years and will produce nuts no matter how long it goes.

Why do you worry about reservation? Your general quotal seats are being kept intact. Remember, India made real economic progress after 91 and that is the year OBC reservation started in central government jobs. I can assure you that once OBC reservation is extended to private sector jobs, India will become an economic super power. So, for the development of India from an extremely poor country to a developled country, support reservation.

Support reservaion and waste talents!India could have progressed a lot after 1991 had the reservation system not burdened the country.However, I agree with you that,like SC/STs, most of the OBCs quota will not be fullfilled.This is because you can make a horse breed but not a mule.

all the progress that India has achieved after 1991 is because of the private sector and not because of OBCs working in govt jobs. India's great IT sector and BPO industry has been made possible because of the HUGE investment the west made in the internet and the fiber optic network across the globe. OBCs had nothing to do with that

Infact, OBC 27% quota will go unused. All OBCs are scoring higher than general merit people
